No breakfast and No delivery service available since we came off season. Was able to order by phone and pick up. We didn't use the pool or hot tub since it was raining. But we were able to do late checkout.

Room was not clean, the shelf to hang your clothes looks like it had never been cleaned, excessive dirt, there was someone’s headband and hair ties left in the shower and it was also not clean. There was a fireplace in the room, but the glass on it was so black you couldn’t see the entire top half of it. Needs some serious updating and cleaning. Way too expensive for what we walked into. I would not stay at this location again.

We loved our stay here. Access to the boardwalk was across the street and we enjoyed a nice sunset dinner just a short walk down the road. The room was great with plenty of room and a separate living room. Lovely area.

Great Beach Stay!

This was the second time I've stayed here and I love Cambria and its setting even more. The beach and board walks are delightful - we saw lots of redwing blackbirds and snowy egrets where the nearby creek meets the ocean. As for the hotel, the rooms are clean and furnished with quality linens and towels. The fireplaces are a real draw. The pool was being worked on, but it was too cold to swim anyhow, so we used the hot tub one night. The firepits were appealing, though the front one needs repairs to self-light. On my first visit, there was a dining room with food for breakfast, now you order from a local eatery for delivery. We didn't try the delivery food. The in-room coffee was good. Nearby are two restaurants and a wine tasting venue. We had a later dinner at Moonstone Grill, the less crowded restaurant. Very nice food and wine. We recommend Sunday Mass at the Camaldoni Monastery near Lucia, the drive and weather were glorious and the quiet up there is incredible. Lots to do in this locale. We hope to come back.

The room was very clean and spacious. However it was very hot no air conditioning in the room. I went to the front desk to ask for a fan and got a very small clip for on fan that was dirty and gave no air. We had to keep windows open all night.
